Jira Markup at a glance
Jira Markup
Convert to Jira Markup when content must round-trip through older Jira or Confluence workflows, when exporting or importing issue text through scripts, or when translating Atlassian-authored content into Markdown, HTML, or another publishing format.
It is mainly useful for migration and interoperability inside Atlassian-heavy environments.
CSV at a glance
CSV
Convert to CSV when data needs to move between tools rather than preserve layout.
It is the standard target for database exports, spreadsheet imports, mailing-list uploads, analytics extracts, and one-time migrations into other business systems.
Use CSV when recipients need a simple table they can open anywhere or ingest programmatically, and avoid it when formulas, multiple sheets, cell formatting, comments, or strong typing need to survive the conversion.
CSV is best when interoperability and machine-readability matter more than presentation.
